Fenerbahçe host AS Roma at the Çobani Stadium in Istanbul for the opening matchday of the 2026/27 UEFA Champions League season on 10 September at 19:45 MSK. Both sides arrive in excellent attacking form, with Roma stringing together three consecutive Serie A victories and scoring at least two goals in nine of their last ten matches across all competitions. Fenerbahçe have also been prolific, finding the net in each of their last ten outings and impressing during their qualifying campaign against Lyon with goals in both legs. The Turkish hosts boast quality attacking talent including Muriki and Greenwood, while Roma counter with Malen and Dibala leading their charge.
Form and Head-to-Head
Roma's recent domestic form has been outstanding, with ten goals scored across their last three league matches.
